Not sure what to do with this
I wanted to practice on my new sit down longarm machine, so I took some leftover black fabric and did some doodling. Under the light of the machine, all of the threads showed up well, but away from that bright light, some disappear. I don't know if I should trim and bind this for some use (like changing the oil in the car) or discard it. It was fun to do something with no purpose in mind, and it was fun practice, but now I don't know what to do with it. Suggestions?

I used practice pieces for a lot of things. They are great for pads between your china plates to keep them from getting scratched. I also put another piece of fabric on the top and bottom and reuse them for practice pieces. I've used them as dog beds, protective pads for furniture, pads for under my sewing machines, lot of uses. I wouldn't toss it out.
